Hey girl!
I have been getting a few spots as well here and there. I just went and bought a 3 step kit from clinique. My g/f uses it and loves it. Someone also told me about the vichy line of skin care - it's also supposed to be really good.
Unfortunately, there's not too much you can do about acne right now b/c you're getting it b/c of your raging hormone's!!!! It will get better though and usually your face tends to clear up into your 2nd trimester and you'll start to get your "pregnancy glow".......Or so i'm hoping!!!!! Lol
try finding something to suit your skin type and/ or with a salicylic acid in it (if you can use this on your face) - it's ok to use when your pregnant. It will help with the acne. Don't use heavy foundations and use an oil-free moisturizer!!!!!!!!
Good luck and let me know how it goes!
Hope this info helps you!?!

Ask your dr before you use anything on your face. I was told some are not to be used I cant remember which ones. Oh and I heard that salicylic acid has not been tested on pregnant woment so how can they know its safe

Thanks both of ya...It helps a lot I have really seriously been thinking about getting dermabrasion some day when I have the money to get rid of the spot scars..Im so sick of looking like a pizza face..Or so they tease the kids out here with that stupid name..Andrew has asked me why my skins getting worse..I said because your little booger is making my hormones go nuts!!! I hope they go away...What clears the scars jae is that what you talking about the stuff your friend uses or the other stuff? Is that just canada stuff the 2nd thing you mentioned because I have never heard of that....Hmm well thanks!! =(

hi! i am almost 9 weeks and my skin is starting to break out more, including my back which i hate! i am so worried it will be there when i am in a wedding in june! my Dr told me anything topical was ok, even prescribed things. oral meds are a big no! i use clyndamicin (sp?) and it helps some and the Dr's know i use it. hopefully i will get the second trimester beautiful glow!

Actually - salicylic acid is safe to use when you are pregnant. I have asked 2 doctor's about this and anything topical is generally ok, but of course, it is wise to consult your doctor first before using!!!!!

K - not too sure that there is a cream out there that will actually work well enough to reduce the scaring from acne. I've heard of some, but I don't know anyone who's used it???!!!!
Vichy I thought was sold in the States as well??? I can't imagine it only being here in Canada - it's a European brand I thought??? We never have anything that the States doesn't have!!!!!

Pregnancy glow here we come ladies!!!!!!!!!!!

well my dr told me not to use anything cause some things could make it worse .i did not have much just 1 or 2
